Description:

If you are entering the Muscle Car club, here is a chance to purchase my 1964 Comet CalienteThis beast is a true survivor of the ages - looking pretty good for 51 Years of age...I love the lines and trim on this Muscle car.
Here is my list of known facts about the car:Original paint and interiorNo body damageChrome is very good as well as all the stainless trimWhite wall tires are great!The V8 engine was rebuilt but I do not know when. The car runs awesome! Watch the video...The transmission is tight and shifts smooth with Three on the TreeThe glass is all good and windows work as they shouldAll gauges work as they shouldAll interior lights work as they shouldAll exterior lights work as they shouldThere are 427 badges someone added, I left them on, sort of cool (see picture)New shocksNew water pump and hosesRebuilt carburetorWashington state historical/collector car platesThis is a true survivor, but also a driver and brings a lot of attention! Here are two videos:This video is an introduction to the Caliente here video is the car driving here can be done if you want to get out of the Patina class at a car show. These are not and never would be my choices. I am an all stock guy which is why I own the car. You could repaintNo real body work, though it has signs of a little bit of work at the rear wheel wells, see the picturesRedo the interior and updateParking brake lever is stiff, needs to loosen up a bitHorn is not honking right now, could just be a fuse, may work at sale time, may not. The fine print:I expect the bidding to exceed the low reserve for this nice classic piece of history. I will work with shipping companies.$500 non-refundable deposit due within 24 hours of auction closePlease do not bid if you do not have at least 10 feed backs and they should all be perfectThis car has been a blast for our family, but the wife says no seat belts, then no driving the kids. No way was I going to drill holes in the floor. Would I drive it across the USA? Not sure, but that certainly would be an adventure, I would take old route 66. It did make the drive from Washington state to Las Vegas for the Hot August Nights, 2013. (see front license plate)
